Good things! There are good things :)
1. Dar and I are going to Vegas for a long weekend. Wheee! A one-day fare sale popped up on WestJet this afternoon, so we grabbed it. We leave on Saturday the 20th and return on Tuesday the 23rd. In between there will be Star Trek: The Experience, a hoped-for but not definite meet-up with the shindiggers who are renting a house outside of Vegas that week, and much giggling at the excesses of Las Vegas. The last time I was there was in 1975; I think it's changed a bit. Heh. And this time I will a) have more than $2 on me and b)be wearing something more appropriate than ripped jeans, an old beat-up flannel shirt, and work boots. (I was heavily into my dyke phase at that time *g*)
2. I got my work visa renewal in the mail today. YayyaY! I'm heading out first thing tomorrow to get my health card renewed. That's a big weight off my mind, let me tell you. And now I'm one step closer to getting my permanent resident visa, too. (I'm not going to think about the possibility of being denied because of health reasons. I'm not.) I may even blow dry my hair for the occasion since I'll need a new photo on the new health card. My last haircut - which truly is the worst haircut in the world - is growing out as crappily as I figured it would. I am going to try my best not to look like Larry from the Three Stooges when I stand in front of the camera. No guarantees, but I'm givin' it my best shot.
3. Chloe Kitty is now an inside cat. She showed up on the back deck late this afternoon, so I opened up the screen door and she wandered in and just made herself at home. She spent a good portion of the evening down in Mark's office hanging out with him while he tried to work. He said she was having a grand time with his keyboard. I'll bet :) The other cats are doing pretty well; there's stalking and sniffing but no hissing this time around. It's really helped to have had her make short visits indoors over the past month. I'm not saying it's going to be a seamless blending, but I really think that it's going to be fairly uneventful. (See what I just did there? Put the jinx on it, I did.)
4. Dar had an interview with a potential new personal physician--and she passed. Woo! And no, I'm not kidding. The doctors in Ontario can afford to be that picky. But Dar liked her, she liked Dar, and best of all, she's of the opinion that doctors aren't just for people who don't actually need them. We were wondering if she was going to be scared off by Dar's extensive medical history and, uh, unusual ongoing health issues, but it appears the doc is up for the challenge. YayyayyaY! And although the office is 45 minutes away, it's a pleasant drive and Mitchell is a lovely little town. The office sits on the edge of a nature trail/bird sanctuary, so I can hang out there while Dar is meeting with her doctor. Win/win.
5. Good day. Very good day. \0/
